I was looking for a kick board and found this. I thought it was the full size kick board, since I'd never seen a small one before. The photo is out of context, so it's hard to tell.

It's really meant for one hand. But to my surprise, it works pretty well as a kick board as well. Because its small and can easily go underwater, it provides just enough buoyancy for the drill without being too much.

Side benefit is because it's small, it fits into my bag easily.

I'd only recommend this for someone who's a little more focused in swimming and doing drills with a purpose. If you're looking for something to just kick behind and plod along, then find something else.

I got this specifically for working my dolphin kick and for a smaller kick board in general. I am very happy with the choice. It's small, lightweight and easy to use - particularly with the finger strap. I love that it works so well below the surface when I'm practicing my dolphin kick - it keeps my neck from being pinched, which is a bit of a problem with the larger boards.

When the alignment kickboard arrived and I saw its size, I was thinking I should've ordered 2. However, once I got it in the pool, I discovered how easy it was to use with one or both hands. My body stays in alignment and I am able to put my face in the water, unlike with traditional kickboards.

This is a terrific product. It is so much easier to use than the other ones around, and I've tried many as I have a freestyle problem kick. It's lighter and easier to manipulate. It works very well for breastroke, but I haven't tried it yet with fly and I haven't used it with a snorkel. I also appreciate the fact that it's more portable for traveling, and fits in the bag that I keep on deck with all my swim equipment.

I'm an old person who only swims freestyle and only in preparation for triathlons. My pace is about 1:30 per 100 for 2000 yds.I don't like to kick and don't like kick board drills.I DO like the Alignment Kickboard when used with the snorkel. Using the Alignment board and snorkel keeps the head and chest down, and the torso aligned with the legs, similar to freestyle alignment. The strap forces your hands to be stacked which in-turn forces your arms straight and head down so using without a snorkel would be difficult and counterproductive.Since I only flutter kick I can only comment on that performance. I feel like, after only a few uses, I have improved my kick. My hands are small to average and the strap was pretty tight.

Helps a lot with keeping proper alignment. It's easy to grab and more stable in water than a traditional board. I have used those for years without noticing any improvement to my flutter kick.It's also very compact and easy to fit in a back pack.

This is small, lightweight and really convenient to use. I particularly like being able to use it one-handed (great for drills) and that it sits just under the water so it's helpful for getting a good body position. The only thing it doesn't do well (which makes me keep my trusty old techboard by the pool as well) is act as a pull buoy. But it does what it says on the box, and does it well. Great product!
